    Wanted: Movie Pressbooks

    Yes this is not a classified for a physical movie disc or tape, but I hope no one will mind my posting this here as there is no other area. I am interested in buying movie pressbooks of all types. Pressbooks were issued by the movie studios to the theaters when they ran a movie. It contained all...

    MARY POPPINS, A LOOK BACK

    When I was a boy, there was one actress I saw on the screen who could mesmerize me: Julie Andrews. She was the nanny I think every youngster wanted to take care of them. So it gives me great pleasure to have put this column together on the history of "Mary Poppins," the first film I remember...

    Is there anyone outside of the USA who has purchased their countries version of the film (just released from Paramount) Jonathan Livingston Seagull? The english version is in mono and sounds like a sound transfer from an old tv print, and the specs for U.K. and other countries say 5.1 stereo...

    THE SOUND OF MUSIC presentation on Dec.23 ABC

    Saturday night, ABC presented THE SOUND OF MUSIC in HD (supposedly). I watched the first half hour and turned it off. Then, with the taped portion on my dvr, compared that to the 40th anniversary DVD. I think the dvd had more resolution, cleaner picture, and much better contrast. The dvd was the...

    GUYS AND DOLLS special edition

    DVD Answers has posted the cover for the GUYS AND DOLLS special edition (finally). The cover seems rather plain, but usually the Region 1 is different from the R2. Has anyone heard of this announcement in the U.S. yet? Available to own from the 25th April (that's region 2 so far), . The film...

    Billy Rose's Jumbo Dvd

    I just got home with my new copy of JUMBO. My hats off to Warner Brothers classics. When I purchased the laserdisc years ago, I thought it was one of the best transfers of a classic musical, but now, after screening this DVD, it's simply a piece of junk. The picture is stunning, but what amazes...

    Hello. I was interested in purchasing a Mitsubishi DVHS machine, and I had someone inform me of D5 protection that would not allow me to tape anything in HD off of cable (for my own home watching). Does anyone know more about this, and if there are machines that do not have this on them? I...

    SCIENTIFIC ATLANTA 8000HD question

    I am wondering if anyone else has the Scientific Atlanta 8000HD dvr for use with Tima/Warner cable, or other uses. Last night, I went to purchase a HDTV DVHS vcr, and the only inputs any of them have are firewire. So I came home and checked out my box, and sure enough NO FIREWIRE OUTPUT. Then, I...

    Recent "godzilla" Movies

    I would like to hear what you think of the newer Godzilla movies, from Toho released on Columbia/Tri-star, preferably from any Godzilla fans. I have been a Godzilla fan since I was a kid, and those were some of my most memorable Saturday afternoon matinees. Watching those old ones today are fun...

    Sensurround Movies

    I would like to hear anyone's input on the transfer of Universal's Sensuround movies. I just purchased the special edition of MIDWAY dvd, and even though it has a 1.1 soundtrack, the .1 being for the bass track, I was surprised that it really didn't kick much. The laserdisc widescreen edition...

    Dts On Classics

    I hope that we can accumulate some support on this post, so the studios hear us. I have always been saddened that the studios tend to leave DTS out on most classic movies, while they have the room to use it. My favorite catagory is musicals, and I would say there are only a small number in my...

    I have been with this forum a week now and absolutely love it. Sorry I mis-spelled Rodgers on the post title, don't know how to change it. I am wondering if there are many people out there who would like to see special editions of the Rodgers and Hammerstein movies? These films are so well...
